This year's festival will be slightly different we are actively encouraging people to go caving on their own or to meet people and join them caving. We are going to supply information on some of the major caves in the area such as grades and surveys and cave location so you can go explore.
There will be a beginner trip to Porth Yr ogof on the Saturday which involves water. Bring your wetsuit and wellies. Information available on the Friday evening from main tent, limited kit hire will be available.
We would like to offer the opportunity for anyone that was due to speak at hidden earth this year to speak at cave fest so we have half hour spots between 5-7 pm each day so if your interested please contact the team. This is not a normal thing for us but as there is no hidden earth this year we thought it would fill a hole.pun intended. but we could never step in the shoes of the amazing hidden earth and look forward to its return in 2023
Also onsite we will have starless river caving shop for all your caving needs, burger van for your burger fix and big breakfast needs, a fully stocked gin bar and a cavers bar with fully stocked ciders and ale and maybe the cavers number 1 beer might make an appearance
Overall we aim to make cavefest uk a cheap entertaining not for profit festival and hope you will be joining us.
